Science Lab Safety Made Simple for F–1 Students

Introduce essential science lab safety skills in a way young learners can actually understand with this self-checking interactive Science Lab Safety Game. Designed for foundation through year one, this resource uses fun graphics and short, kid-friendly scenarios to help students practise determining whether a student is being safe or unsafe during a science investigation.

The main focus? Keeping our five senses safe while working scientifically, especially learning that we never use our sense of taste in science.

Lab Safety Scenarios for Little Learners

In this interactive game, students help Dr Shero develop a new formula to eliminate all the supervillains at once! To play, students will listen to a brief scenario describing a child participating in a science activity. Students then decide whether the behaviour shown is safe or unsafe. The activity is self-checking, making it perfect for a whole-group gaming session on an interactive whiteboard.

Students learn to:

• Identify safe and unsafe science behaviours
• Understand how to protect their eyes, ears, nose, skin, and mouth
• Recognise that tasting substances is never allowed in science
• Build early scientific responsibility and awareness
